HE'S BEEN DRINKING THAT FIRE-WATER AGAIN!
In Maine, a fire chief has been charged with being drunk behind the wheel of his truck. Now, it seems to me that if you are going to DUI, you don't draw attention to yourself by having the lights and sirens going. Yet, that is exactly what Russell Banks of Burlington did.
He was arrested following a complaint from a local resident that the truck was being raced past his home, even though there was no fire in the vicinity.
Discovered 'smelling of alcohol and with bloodshot eyes,' Banks was found to have twice the legal limit of alcohol in his blood.
Apparently, he was blasting the siren in retaliation for a neighborhood dispute. Sort of pouring oil on troubled waters and then setting fire to it...
